Chapter 217: Mist Monster
Cao Rui felt dizzy. When he came back to his senses from the spatial vibration of the teleportation array, he found himself in a dim hall.
The hall was filled with a depressing atmosphere. Only two objects similar to fire pillars emitted a faint light, barely illuminating the surrounding environment.
Perhaps because Cao Rui's soul was stronger than others, he became the first person to come back to his senses.
The others were still standing there in a daze, obviously still swaying in the teleportation array.
However, to his surprise, the second person to wake up was not Gu Qingying, but Huiguang.
Huiguang seemed to have noticed and glanced at Cao Rui, but did not speak, just stood aside silently.
Then, other cultivators and demon cultivators also woke up one after another.
They looked around blankly, obviously not yet fully adapted to this unfamiliar environment.
Zhang Heng and others also woke up. They quickly withdrew and retreated, swiftly swept to an empty place, and vigilantly observed the situation around them.
Seeing this, Cao Rui also followed and stood with the small group of scattered cultivators.
At the same time, the other cultivators who were teleported in also responded quickly. They formed small groups.
After a while, four waves of forces were clearly formed in the hall. Each wave of forces gathered together, keeping a certain distance from each other, with vigilance and alertness in their eyes.
One wave of five dragon-like monsters, one wave of Gu Qingying and a female elder from Yunshui Sect, one wave of Huiguang and two abbots from Miaoyin Temple, and one wave of four people led by Zhang Heng from the scattered cultivators.
It can be seen that although Yunshui Sect and Miaoyin Temple are cooperating, they are not as close as they seem on the surface.
More reasons are because the Spirit Beast Sect has risen recently, and the two sects have no choice but to connect.
The cultivators of the two sects looked ugly. The sudden attack of Lanlong Taoist during the teleportation caused the two sects to lose a full five foundation-building cultivators!
And they are all experienced and powerful foundation-building cultivators!
Zhang Heng cursed loudly at this time: "Damn it, Huiguang, you guessed it right. Fortunately, you let us start the transmission suddenly, and the blue dragon Taoist couldn't react in time! Otherwise, when the transmission was turned on, the blue worm had enough time to react, and we, the human cultivators, would be wiped out in one fell swoop?"
"If you ask me, let's join forces and kill these five long worms first!"
Hearing this, the five dragon-like monsters all retreated a few steps. Although they were only third-level monsters, because of the blood in their bodies, except that they could not transform and could not speak, their IQs were no different from ordinary humans.
And these five dragon-like monsters were able to retract their monster bodies, and at this time their systems were all retracted to a size of two or three meters.
At present, the number of human cultivators has an advantage. If they are really besieged as Zhang Heng said, they will definitely die.
"The suggestion of this old Taoist is not bad!" Gu Qingying was ready to move. The three foundation-building elders died, and the loss of Yunshui Sect was too great. It was all because of these brutal monster cultivators! Gu Qingying wanted to kill the monster immediately to vent her hatred!
"Amitabha, fellow Taoists, let's take a look at the surrounding environment first, don't rush to fight, the environment here is quite strange." Huiguang spoke, stopping the upcoming fight.
Huiguang condensed his magic power, pinched the magic formula with his hands, and a golden Buddha seal hit the wall of the hall.
A flash of spiritual light flashed on the wall, and the Buddha seal did not cause any damage to the wall.
"My suggestion is that since you have come here, put aside your prejudice for the time being, and it will not be too late to distribute it after grabbing the benefits in the fortress." Huiguang transmitted the voice.
After the benefits are in hand, kill people and grab treasures? Huiguang's words are not unreasonable, and Gu Qingying's murderous intent gradually hides.
The monks searched the hall and found nothing unusual. It seems that only by walking out of the hall can they find something.
"You long worms, go ahead and explore." Gu Qingying held the magic sword and spoke to the five dragon-like monsters with an imposing manner.
The five dragon-like monsters knew that the situation was not right, so they also walked towards the exit of the hall obediently.
Although there are records of this Tianji Fortress in the Yunzhou Xiuxian world, no one knows the general situation inside.
It is best to let these monsters explore the way.
A group of cultivators followed the monsters and walked out of the hall.
Cao Rui followed the end of the team. His spiritual sense stayed slightly on two torch-like light sources and found that this was not a real bonfire, but a mechanical lighting device. The specific principle was unknown.
"What a strange fog."
The voice of the female elder of Yunshui Sect came from the front.
Cao Rui's spiritual sense swept away and found that the inside and outside of the hall were completely two different worlds.
Although the empty hall was dark, the cultivator's eyesight and spiritual sense could still see clearly.
And the gray fog outside the hall, with Cao Rui's spiritual power, could not penetrate it at all.
A monster carefully poked its head out and looked nervously outside the fog.
Suddenly, with a loud "bang", a thick gray arm stretched out like lightning, tightly grasped the monster's head, and dragged it into the mist.
Then, a thrilling roar resounded through the mist, as if it came from hell.
A moment later, the monster's figure fled out of the mist in a mess. It ran to the deepest part of the hall regardless of everything, and finally fell to the ground, gasping for breath.
The monks raised their eyes in astonishment and stared at the scene in front of them. They were surprised to find that after being dragged into the mist for just a few breaths, the monster's body was already scarred and there was almost no intact place.
The scales on the monster's body were broken into pieces, and the wounds were so shockingly deep that even bones could be seen.
Especially on its huge dragon head, a deep claw mark extends from the head to the left lower jaw, which is ferocious and terrifying.
What's even more frightening is that the entire left eyeball has disappeared, leaving only a black hole in the eye socket, with the white bones exposed inside vaguely visible.
"His grandma has no legs. Fortunately, the monster took the lead first! What is going on here? Is this a fucking opportunity or a trap?" Zhang Heng couldn't help but yelled.
"Shut up! Old master!" Gu Qingying scolded.
Zhang Heng suddenly stopped.
Several monster beasts gathered around the injured monster beast, roaring lowly.
The third-level monster is still unable to speak human words and cannot communicate with the monks.
The monks had no idea what they were communicating.
The Spiritual Beast Sect does have the subject of beast language, but Cao Rui is a 'fake' disciple of the Spiritual Beast Sect and has never studied a similar subject.
"Fellow Taoist Shi, you are a physical practitioner, what do you think?" Tan Hongmei asked at this time. This statement focused everyone's attention on Shi Shatian.
Physical cultivation is still extremely rare in Yunzhou. After all, it is much more difficult for ordinary monks to prove the Tao through force, and the techniques they practice are often the most advanced ones.
